Chapter 859: Widows Never Get Married
"Ruyi Quguo, there should be no shortage of beauties."
Qingji said meaningfully, "Since Yiqu Jun intends to marry my Wu Kingdom. ”
"The widow does not ask for the daughter of Yiqu Jun to marry into the Wu Kingdom, but also asks Yiqu Jun to choose the most beautiful woman in the country and marry the widow."
This is really stealing chickens and rice!
Jochi secretly smiled bitterly, and could only agree.
And pro?
This is absolutely impossible for Qingji.
Men should get married, and women should get married.
But Qingji will never tolerate the exchange of a woman, especially his own daughter, for the peace of the country.
What is the use of such peace?
Is it just for a momentary respite?
Besides, Wu has not yet reached that point!
"King Wu, there is one more thing."
Jochi said with his head bowed.
"What?"
"In recent years, the Xirong countries, and even the Qiang tribes in the southwest of Wu State, have not been peaceful."
"There are many ill-intentioned people, in order to maintain the peace of the border of Wu, please ask King Wu to canonize our monarch as 'Xibo', lead the Xirong countries, and arbitrarily kill!"
As soon as he heard this, before Qingji could speak, the ministers fiercely objected.
This righteous canal person really has to make inches!
If the marriage failed, he dared to ask Qingji to canonize him as "Xibo"?
Yiqumo, it's really a wolf's ambition!
Qingji pressed his hand, signaled the ministers to be calm and restless, and then looked at Jochi with a smile and asked, "Does Yiqu Jun want to be the king of Zhou?" ”
"Don't dare."
Jochi trembled with fear.
This "Zhou Wang Ji" is not something ordinary people can do.
Zhou Wang Ji is the Ji calendar, and the season is the ranking, so it is called the season calendar.
He was the youngest son of King Tai of Zhou, the father of King Wen of Zhou, and the grandfather of King Wu of Zhou and Gongdan of Zhou.
After Ji Li took over the throne, he inherited the legacy of his father, devoted himself to righteousness, led the tribe to build water conservancy, develop agricultural production, train the army, and intermarried with the Shang nobleman Ren, actively absorbing the culture of the Shang Dynasty and strengthening political ties.
With the support of the Shang Dynasty, he made great moves against the surrounding Rongdi tribes and continued to improve his military strength.
During the reign of King Wending of Shang, Ji Li was named a "priest" and became the chief of the Western princes.
Later, because of his weight, he was jealous and died of a hunger strike by Wending.
Now, Yiqumo wants Qingji to canonize himself as "Xibo", doesn't he just want to become a seasonal calendar?
"Since Yiqu Jun wants to be Xibo and maintain the peace of the western region of Wu for the widow, why can't the widow be fulfilled?"
Qingji said slowly: "Ji Ran." ”
"The minister is here!"
"You immediately draw up an edict for the widow to canonize Yiqu Jun as the Xibo of my Wu country, and from then on, you can lead the Xirong countries and kill them arbitrarily."
"The King's ......"
Dazai wanted to speak and stopped, wanting to dissuade Qingji, but was glanced at by Qingji, and finally agreed.
"Thank you, King Wu!"
Jochi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Qingji.
Although, he was not able to make Qingji marry a daughter to Yiqu Kingdom.
However, it was a surprise that Qingji was able to canonize Yiqumo as Xibo and recognize his leading position among the Xirong kingdoms!
……
Night falls.
In a palace near the Taiye Pond, it is still brightly lit.
Ji Ran, who had already drafted an edict, came with the edict to meet Qingji.
Coming to this palace with him were Fan Li, the imperial historian, Cheng Bo Tuo, the great Sima Wu Zixu, Wu Anjun Sun Wu, the left prime minister Wenzhong, the right prime minister Kong Qiu, the great Xingling Ling Yang Hu, the left Sima Tian Sui Tho, as well as Gongzi Hong and Gongzi Zhang.
This is already equivalent to a small pilgrimage.
The ministers present here are all ministers of the court, and they have great weight in the state of Wu.
"Father, my sons are puzzled."
Gongzi Zhang frowned and said, "Why did my father canonize Yiqu Mo as Xibo? ”
"As the chief of the princes of the Eight Kingdoms of Xirong, Yiqumo is nominally able to lead the Eight Kingdoms of Xirong. Father, aren't you afraid that the Yiqu people will rise up and be detrimental to my Wu Kingdom? ”
Hearing this, Qingji smiled slightly and said, "Wu Zhang, the people of Yiqu are already disadvantageous to my Wu country. ”
"This ...... In this case, why did the father help the power of the Yiqu people? ”
Before Qingji could speak, Fan Li, who was sitting on the side, said with a smile: "Zhang Gongzi, I guess, the king did it on purpose." ”
"The king is not Wending, and Yiqumo will not be a seasonal calendar."
"Everything can be one or two, but again and again, the Yiqu people sent a Hu dress as a congratulatory gift to the king, which itself is testing the king's bottom line."
"Now Yiqu Mo has sent Jochi over again, wanting to marry my Wu State and ask for the name of Xibo."
"All of this is a test of the king and watching my Wu country."
As soon as he heard this, Gongzizhang snorted and said: "Just Yiqu Country, the land of projectiles, dare to spy on the territory of my Wu Kingdom?" ”
"Father, you shouldn't be used to righteous people."
Qingji shook his head and said: "The widow must not only get used to the righteous people, but also further indulge the righteous people. ”
"This ......"
"To make it perish, you must first make it mad."
Qingji smiled and said, "Wu Zhang, you are still young, and there are still many things to learn." ”
"No."
Gongzizhang hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Erchen has been taught." ”
In fact, Fan Li, Ji Ran, Sun Wu and others, as the wise men of the world, could already guess Qingji's thoughts.
The strength of Wu, coupled with the relocation of the capital to Xianyang in Qingji, will inevitably strengthen the border defense force in the western part of Wu.
The first to bear the brunt of this is naturally the Xirong Eight Kingdoms.
Although, the eight kingdoms of Xirong are all vassal states of Wu.
But, who can guarantee that the eight kingdoms of Xijon will not rebel one day?
Yiqumo's wolf ambition is already obvious.
Where there is a first time, there will be a second and a third time...... Countless times!
The practice of the Yiqu people is to test the bottom line of Qingji again and again and provoke the authority of Wu State.
Can Qingji get used to him?
Yes!
But it won't be used to Yiqu people forever.
"I wonder what my father will let the Yiqu people do?"
Gongzihong asked curiously.
"The Yiqu people can annex the eight kingdoms of Xirong."
"What?"
As soon as Qingji's words fell, the ministers couldn't help but change color.
Ji Ran said worriedly: "Great King, if the Yiqu people really annex the Eight Kingdoms of Xirong, I am afraid that they will become a great enemy of my Wu State and threaten the peace of the western part of the Wu Kingdom. ”
"Ji Ran, do you know Yiqumo?"
"I don't understand."
"The widow knows a thing or two."
Qingji squinted his eyes and said: "This person is not lacking in scheming and courage, but he, like the monarchs of all Xirong countries, is superstitious about force and does not know how to be lenient. ”
"Therefore, Yiqu Mo, Yiqu people are destined to be unpopular and will not last long."
"If he dares to devour the Xirong countries, then there is no need for our Wu country to fight at every turn, and the Yiqu country will fall into the abyss, which is the way for the Yiqu people to bring about their own destruction."
"The king is wise!"
The ministers all exclaimed.
